Brentford Betting Preview

Although there might not be a ton of chatter about it around the Premier League, there is a quiet confidence from Brentford as they believe they can find success this season. If they want to find that success, the defense is going to need to be better than it was in the last game. Brentford faced off against Wolfsburg in the last game and they played to a 4-4 draw. Brentford had 55 percent of the possession and five shots on target. Igor Thiago was a big signing this offseason, but he suffered a serious knee injury and is now going to be out. Not having him for a while is a big loss for the squad. Rico Henry is also dealing with an injury and although he should be back soon, it doesn’t look like he’s going to be ready to go in this game.

Crystal Palace’s Betting Preview

Crystal Palace well during the preseason although they did play to a 1-1 draw in the last game. Crystal Laace faced off against Nantes and they fell behind in the 18th minute. In the 60th minute though, Daichi Kamada scored a goal and that was enough for the draw. They had 63 percent of the possession and two shots on target. Maeta is back in training and it looks like he could be ready to go in this game. Daichi Kamada and Ismaila Sarr are the new signings and they both are going to need to play big roles this season. In this game Crystal Palace needs to put the pressure on early.

There might be a quiet confidence surrounding this Brentford team, but that is going to be quickly quashed here. Brentford’s defense gave up four goals in the last game and their defense is going to be ugly here. Crystal Palace is going to get out to a fast start with the offense, and Brentford is going to have no answer with the offense. Back Crystal Palace to get the job done on the money line.
